Synopsis
Claire Danvers is a brilliant student at a college that seems to value looks over brains, and she now knows her college town is full of vampires. She has settled into the Glass House with her friends Eve, Shane and Michael, but dangerous dorm mates still make her days difficult. Her new boyfriend Shane has a troubled history with his father, a vampire hunter, who returns to Morganville with a group of supporters and threatens the town's fragile peace between humans and vampires. At the same time, a fraternity invites Claire and her best friend Eve to its annual Dead Girls' Dance, an event where the living and the dead come together and trouble is hard to avoid.
